The 2013 Gloria Estate Russian River Valley Pinot Noir is Freeman’s second-ever estate bottled wine, from the hillside vineyard directly adjacent to the family’s winery facility. Ken and Akiko chose the name ‘Gloria’ since it was Hurricane Gloria that fatefully brought them together in 1985. Dark ruby in color, this wine opens with aromas of blackberries, currants, black cherry and spice. It is elegant and refined on the palate with nice structure and soft, round tannins that lingers.
